How Opiskelijabileet.fi protects from bots and bootleggers?
Opiskelijabileet.fi protects from bots and bootleggers multiple different ways:
Purchase limit: Event organizers can set purchase limits for how many tickets one user can buy.
Resell (*): Users can resell their tickets forward safely, but the maximum resell price can be as much as the original ticket price was.
Bot protection: Opiskelijabileet.fi uses the modern, state-of-the-art bot protections that can identify bad actors, spam, and automated purchase attempts. Tickets belong to people, not bots.
* In the making.
Who's behind all this?
The service is being developed by Kasperi "Kappe" Keski-Loppi
. I'm a University of Turku graduate from 2018, a passionate entrepreneur and a developer. AFAIK, Opiskelijabileet.fi was established 2008 by some students in Turku, out of the need to bring more visibility to local student events. I got the domain in summer 2021, and continued with the same idea: to list student events.
Autumn 2022 we hooked up with students from the Turku University of Applied Sciences, and sold tickets to one of their events. As the project succeeded so well, I decided to double down on it. I established a new business and here we go now.
